The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),Atiku Abubakar says he did not authorize the list of 30 alleged corrupt politicians working with President Muhammadu Buhari.

Former Vice President and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar has denied that he listed 30 politicians who were corrupt and in the government of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Atiku had, in statement released on Sunday by one of his media aides Phrank Shaibu, listed Bola Tinubu, the national leader of the ruling party All Progressives Congress (APC) and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo as one of those corrupt politicians working with Buhari.

But the Deputy Director-General of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council (South) and former governor of Ogun State Gbenga Daniel said the statement was not authorised by the former Nigerian vice president.

“Atiku Abubakar is a statesman and not in the habit of making unguarded and unsubstantiated claims about persons and institutions,” Daniel said.
